Oatmeal Coconut Cookies

Ingredients

• 1 cup all purpose flour 
• 0.5 teaspoon baking soda 
• 0.5 cup butter 
• 0.8 cup granulated sugar 
• 2 tablespoons honey 
• 1 cup cooking oats quick (I used large flake)
• 0.1 teaspoon salt 
• 1 cup coconut or shredded sweetened (I used )

Equipment

• bowl
• frying pan
• baking sheet
• sauce pan
• baking paper
• oven
• wire rack
• stove
• spatula

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 350F for 15 minutes. Butter two cookie sheets. I used one extra large cookie sheet I recently purchased from Walmart. It was a dark coated non stick pan. Usually cookies baked on such dark coated sheets turn brown very quickly, so I lined it with parchment paper and then greased it with cooking spray.In a large bowl sift together the flour, baking soda and salt. Stir in the coconut and oats.Melt the butter with the sugar and honey in a small saucepan over medium heat.
2. Remove it from the stove and let it cool for 2 minutes.
3. Pour the melted butter mixture to the dry ingredients and mix well with a spatula.
4. Roll into balls the size of walnuts and place 1 inch apart on the baking sheet and flatten it slightly with a fork.
5. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown. If using 2 cookie sheets, shift racks halfway through the baking to ensure even browning. Mine turned golden brown after 13 minutes itself. I think it’s because of the dark coated cookie sheet.
6. Let the cookies cool on the sheets until they firm slightly. Then using a spatula carefully lift the cookies and transfer it to a cooling rack to cool completely.
